It is fun to think about the Simulation Theory but most discussions revolve around it being likely that we are in one.
What are some concrete reasons why it’s all science fiction and not reality?

I don’t think we can ever prove one way or the other if we’re in a simulation. I am not really sure it should actually matter to us though. But in answer to a couple of the points you make.
If there are bugs, we’d likely not know it. Because everything about the world and universe around us is normal, because it is how it is “warts and all”. But specifically we have some odd things like some of the effects attributed to quantum theories. Perhaps they could be considered bugs.
Why would you see it? If this is a simulation, and the entire system’s state is frozen, stored and the system shutdown for 1000 years. Then restarted, for us no time would have passed, and we’d be unaware of the “shutdown”.
